     5Boost 1.69.0 is out as of 120181212.

    37Because the Portfile currently uses "--layout=tagged", the resulting libraries names change from the Boost 1.68.0 to include an abbreviated architecture (e.g., "x64" for Intel 64-bit; "p32" for PPC 32-bit); thus for example, the prior naming might be "libboost_system-mt.dylib", while the new naming is "libbboost_system-mt-x64.dylib". This slight change combined with a defect in how CMake works with Clang results in the FindBoost.cmake script failing to detect the new library names with significant coercion.
